Hungary
Index
After World War I, a conservative government ruled
Hungary
and made some progress toward economic modernization. The
Great
Depression, however, brought economic collapse, and the
country's
mood shifted to the far right. An alliance with Nazi
Germany
resulted, and Hungary fought on the Axis side in World War
II.
Again Hungary experienced defeat, and the country was
occupied by
the Soviet Red Army.
Data as of September 1989
